Greta Thunberg destroyed vile misogynist Andrew Tate with one tweet

While disgusting old men love to harass all teenage girls, there’s something specific about Greta Thunberg. Greta, a now-19-year-old environmental activist, triggers something for those rancid men. Greta just exists and takes up space and does her activism and decrepit dudes can’t stop crying about it. So that’s what happened yesterday – if you’re not familiar with Andrew Tate, consider yourself blessed. Tate is a British “men’s rights” douche who has been deplatformed by most social media sites for inciting violent misogyny against women and girls. Tate is completely vile. He decided to tweet some sh-t about his cars and directed it to Greta Thunberg. She bodied him with one quote-tweet and then went about her day:

Greta’s tweet reached one million likes in a few hours, and as of Thursday morning, it reached almost 2.5 million likes, not to mention over 400K retweets. She literally didn’t tweet anything else other than this quote-tweet and it was beautiful. Tate was so salty about it he had the most Karen response ever:

LMAO!!!!! Ever since, Tate and his small-d acolytes have been in a blind panic, trying to threaten, harass, cajole, bargain and lie their way out of this very public dog-walk. What’s been interesting to watch is that it’s not just Tate’s sad-sack people either – all of the men in conservative media in America and Europe are crying about this. Greta’s power is so amazing. Tate has been furiously trying to recover from this sh-t, even posting a video where he apparently ranted nonsensical sh-t about Greta (IDK, I didn’t watch it). Just take the L, dude.

    Greta, thank you, this was amazing and could not have happened to a better(worse) person!

    Laughing so hard now!

  4. JanetDR says:

    She is powerful! ♥️

  5. vs says:

    She owned him…. Sometimes just one answer can burn like hell especially to small men like that guy! I don’t know him so the outrage he wanted to create was return to him with a lot of spices!

  6. Veda says:

    This was EPIC! Tate must be nursing his SDE somewhere 😂

    • C-Shell says:

      🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 “How dare you?!” 😂😂😂😂😂

      • one of the marys says:

        That was his response? And not ironically? Well, lame. He should have given it a lot more thought 😆😆

      • Juniper says:

        It’s supposed to be a dig at one of the critical lines in her environmental speeches. The bros are like, “we OWNED her, man.” But nobody knows what he’s talking about. It also took him TEN HOURS to come back with that tweet. LMAO

    • Kate’s Jeggings says:

      He’s nursing it in jail in Romania, lol. That karma was swift.

    • Carmen says:

      I bet Tate is cursing Elon Musk for letting him back on Twitter.

  7. Peachy says:

    That tweet was AMAZING! 😂😂😂 I couldn’t stop laughing when I saw it and the 2nd photo you posted is exactly how I envisioned her face!

  8. SomeChick says:

    she absolutely destroyed him. those horrible old men can’t stand to see a woman in her power – especially a younger woman. they are old and gross and on the way out, and they cannot stand it.

    #TeamGreta

    • H says:

      I had no idea who this guy was and then I went to his Twitter after this article. Boy, there are some vile people in the comments. Greta is a teenager. How a grown man comes for a teenager says everything I know to know about this idiot.

      • Roo says:

        @H, I too did not know him and looked him up. Big mistake. I saw some of the tweets of his followers. Ugh. They’re talking about how she “needs some D”. So gross and pitiful. That’s their response – nothing clever, just plain old misogynistic comments.

      • SomeChick says:

        he’s an incel cheerleader. altho as someone on twitter said, at this point he’s an incel in cell.

  9. Meija says:

    OmG good for her!

  10. Loretta says:

    What a queen!

  11. Miranda says:

    It’s funny, it’s snappy, and it triggered that manbaby HARD. Fuck yeah, Greta!

    (My own reply would’ve been to tell him to test the emissions by wrapping his lips around the tailpipe, or running those cars — many of which I seriously doubt he actually owns — in a sealed garage while he sits in the front seat. But I’m a total, unapologetic c-word with no patience when it comes to pathetic, petulant assholes like Tate.)

  12. TarteAuCitron says:

    He started it. She finished it.

    Goooo Greta! 🙂

  13. Nanea says:

    Too bad that these MRAs can’t quietly take the L, and move on.

    The most hilarious thing is that someone edited Tate’s Wiki page, the entry about his wrestling fights, and listed it as a first round loss.

    No idea if it’s been edited back, but a screenshot is making the rounds on Twitter.

  14. C-Shell says:

    👋 I’m one of the retweets LOL

    Someone tweeted something like, “Who thought 2022 Twitter would go out this epically?” I mean. A one-liner that took down an entire douche population so thoroughly they’ll never recover. Awesomeness = Greta.

  15. Amy Bee says:

    I love it.

  16. Lolo86lf says:

    I just love Greta and I loath Tate. If he was American he would be a Republican.

    • Chrissy says:

      Yeah, he’d be a Congressman!

    • Helonearth says:

      He is American- he was born and raised there. Moved to the UK after his parents divorced…. and no doubt is a republican considering his views on women.

    • Sass says:

      According to Wikipedia he spent his early childhood in the states and moved to Luton in the UK with his mother when he was still a kid. He his considered American-British. While I’m sure if he was raised solely in the US he would call himself a republican, he spent his older childhood, teen years and young adulthood in England, so I would posit his political views are more informed by that particular geopolitical climate.

    • Gabby says:

      And if he were British and fat, he would be Piers Morgan.

  17. Eurydice says:

    Ow, ow, ow, ow – awesome!

  18. Lucy says:

    I love this for him!

  19. Jais says:

    He’s so gross. Love that Greta so awesomely eviscerated him.

  20. ThatsNotOkay says:

    Never heard of him. And after his recent murder, I suspect I never will again.

  21. B says:

    Does anyone else think that picture of him with the Bugatti is….. unflattering?

    • Miranda says:

      Yeah, I have no idea how old he actually is, but the outfit alone just screams “divorced dad in a midlife crisis”. doesn’t it?

    • WiththeAmericann says:

      Same! I’ve never heard of this guy and I’m glad of it. He looks like a total loser who’s really bad in bed.

    • Betsy says:

      I was thinking the same thing, but I was also sitting with it for a moment. Where I grew up – Midwestern, small town to rural area, working to middle class – looking like that would have gotten some raised eyebrows (and maybe among the adults some homophobic language, I don’t know. Whatever their faults, open homophobia and racism were not taught by my parents and family). There was definitely pretty much one flavor of masculinity and this guy seen through that lens is definitely not a straight man. I’m assuming that’s something that would bother him, and perhaps that’s why he’s so virulently misogynist. A hit dog hollers, right?

  22. Seaflower says:

    It has been beautiful to behold both Greta’s single response and the salty man baby tears of Tate and his bro-mates.

  23. Brassy Rebel says:

    Every time some gross dude comes for a smart, strong woman the entire right wing social media universe piles on. Every time!

    Prior to this, I had never heard of Andrew Tate. Now I can go back to never hearing of him.

  24. KBeth says:

    They are threatened by her because she’s smarter than they are.

  25. TIFFANY says:

    My middle age behind knows not to go up against a teenager on social media. Why would I stupidly bring a knife to a gun fight.

    These idiots out here seem to want to learn the hard way.

  26. SAS says:

    I hate him and think he’s truly a danger to our society. Greta killed him with a barely even thought out half-joke.

    What a fucking saddo thinking his personal car collection merits any importance in a serious climate activist’s view of carbon emissions. She’s going for waaaaay bigger guns than this prick. So embarrassing.

  27. BlueSky says:

    Not all heroes wear capes!
    I have this quote on my refrigerator and it made me think of her:
    “The woman who does not require validation from anyone is the the most feared individual on the planet”-Mohadesa Najumi

  28. Giddy says:

    I guess his penis extender cars didn’t work. Shame.

  29. Matilda says:

    His kindergarten reply also was full of small d energy.

    • Liz Version 700k says:

      His life is the embodiment of small d energy to be sure but yes the “how dare you” was …the opposite of epic hahahaha

  30. Sean says:

    “How dare you?!”

    He does realize he’s asking her if she dares, not condeming her supposed audacity, right? Ending a sentence with a question mark means you’re posing a question. He knows that, right?

    Perhaps I’m giving these cretins too much credit but I always suspect their outrage is performative. Tate, Ben Shapiro, etc. When they whine about something on SM, they’re not really upset. They know it will get them clicks and views. People opposed to their “worldview” will shake their heads and say “how pathetic/stupid/whatever.”. The people who actually do believe in the same worldview will be triggered to respond in support of some fashion.

    Either way, it results in attention for these lowlifes. For that reason, I wish as a society we could collectively ignore them. That would really hurt them, not a snappy comeback on SM

    • Lightpurple says:

      So far Shapiro has stayed clear of this particular fray, he’s too busy whining about Glass Onion, but he had his employee Matt Walsh jump in to demonstrate that they don’t get Greta’s joke and they think they have the authority to tell teenage girls how to live.

  31. C says:

    I guess he thought referencing her climate speech was going to be funny? It wasn’t, of course, but yeah.

  32. Julia K says:

    I never thought she was capable of a response like this. Awesome.

    • vs says:

      She definitely is….please check her response after Donald Trump left the White House! For a man baby like trump that must have hurt him hard!

  33. girl_ninja says:

    I tried to watch the 2 minute video he posted in response to her epic body slam but couldn’t. He is reeling from this and seeing him try to act like he’s not shook is hilarious.

    Well done Greta.

  34. Izzy says:

    LMAO. Hello, police? I’d like to report a murder. How? Oh, some well-pointed words…

  35. GoldenMom says:

    And Elon will find a reason to ban this amazing woman in 3…2…1

    SDE sticks together.

  36. Christine says:

    Honest question. How do men like this make so much money? At least Joe Rogan had a hosting career before he went all batshit.

    • Ewissa says:

      He and his brother Tristan runs segs cam online business plus some casinos in Romania also their pyramid scheme whatever it’s was called where they scam little boys for money exchange for his mysoginistic life views and how to get rich.
      Those 14-16y old want to be TopG s aj he calls himself, with money, supercars and pretty women telling the world raw truths and other bs

      • McGee says:

        @ewissa and Christine —

        Apparently the income is well supplemented by human trafficking, allegedly having guys luring women under pretense of romance then holding them against their will and through coercion forcing them to participate in porn-related activity.

        And he has bragged about how he pays off the police, etc (in Romania).

        He’s a piece of shit human, but also a flat-out criminal.

  37. Petra (Brazen Archetyped Phenomenal Woman) says:

    Sadly, this is the world we are living in now. A world where a thirty-something-year-old professional male fighter thinks he can publicly harass a nineteen years old female with the number of cars he owns.

    I’m with Miss Greta Thunberg. Andrew Tate at smalldickenergy@getalife.com for sure.

  38. Lily says:

    Awesome Greta.

    I once listened to an interview with Tate. I made it about fifteen minutes and shut off the broadcast. I couldn’t listen to him anymore.

  39. Twinkle says:

    She has BDE! Go, Greta!

  40. Mary S says:

    Greta gave him a masterclass in “FAFO”. Love it!

  41. Well Wisher says:

    Brevity is the soul of wit.

    Insecurity is soooo unsexy.

    Well done Greta!!

  42. Veronica S. says:

    He’s pathetic, but I hate that this ultimately gave him more attention, too. He targets teen boys for a reason. That’s why he’s so big on TikTok. They’re a vulnerable, insecure demographic growing up in an uncertain world, and they won’t see through him the way a lot of mature adult men will.

  43. Jaded says:

    After getting incensed over the article about the egregious amount of money Khate spent on clothes and jewelry for doing fuckall, this made my day!!!!

  44. tamsin says:

    Brilliant! I can think of a few others who should get the same tweet.

  45. MY3CENTS says:

    She’s amazing!
    I just hope she’s safe from his deranged man babies followers, nothing is scarier than a man’s broken ego.
    GO GRETA!

  46. Mslove says:

    I think this vile man suffers from CTE.

    Go Greta!

  47. Rnot says:

    No one on Earth does unimpressed better than Greta.

  48. Normades says:

    Haha! His comeback was so lame it doesn’t even need a response. She properly buried him the first time.
    That email address is chef’s kiss.

  49. Jk says:

    🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🤣🤣 that was awesome!!!!

  50. Mrs.Krabapple says:

    I said it yesterday on the Gloria Steinem post, the misogynists in the world will attack smart women, like Meghan, like Hillary, and now Greta. I know the other two have security, but I hope Greta does as well, because these men hate, and I mean HATE, women — and certain smart women in particular. They are deranged, and will literally attack a woman for being smart and standing up for something. It’s scary.

  51. Jill says:

    AMAZING! Yet another reason to love her.

  52. Escape says:

    Best come back. Ever.

  53. B says:

    I spent the morning thinking about how certain incel values are the worst, and probably the world would be a better place if they all just died suddenly.
    But I have a gross feeling in my stomach that if he had slurred her sexuality in response for something she said, we would be all over him.
    Even if his penis is microcephalic, should he be slurred for this?
    She can be given a pass on this because 19 year olds are known for their snark.

    • Lola says:

      THIS kind of thinking needs to go. Constantly telling women to “be kind” and “be the bigger person” and stridently policing women’s language and behavior in how they respond to VIOLENT MISOGYNISTS is something that very literally gets women and girls killed every fucking day. There is a podcast that follows violent murders of girls and women and one of the biggest things they say is “fuck politeness,” that fretting over politeness literally gets women killed by violent men. Your policing of women’s replies to these scumbags is not only toxic, it’s dangerous. She can call him a microdick and whatever she fucking wants and I WILL NOT stand for her or any other being policed over it when these men are calling for legalized rape to their audience of millions of young boys.

    • Banga says:

      Lol, no

      The man’s entire toxic identity is centered around his imagined “virility”.
      Insulting his fragile masculinity is *exactly* the right thing.

    • ArtFossil says:

      Oh my.

    • Blithe says:

      B, your sympathies are — at least in my opinion — unfortunately misplaced. If you check out the exchange, Andrew Tate did, as you put it, try to publicly “slur her sexuality”. This abusive dude (I discarded lots of unprintables before I settled on “dude”), is a grown man who sought out a teenager to use sexually tinged snark to embiggen himself at her expense. An adult abusively sought out a teenager, and you’re castigating people for recognizing his toxic abuse?

      What does that say about YOUR values?

      • Lola says:

        Ever notice how “be kind” is so very often aimed at policing how women respond to men who are hurting them?

        People often debate whether there’s such a thing as “toxic femininity” – a counterpoint to toxic masculinity.

        If there is such a thing as toxic femininity, I would argue that it’s this – while men usually cover for each other to break rules and get away with things, women often are the ones most stridently policing other women to comply to the letter with the most misogynistic rules, including social ones, legal ones, and unspoken ones.

      • Julesser says:

        A. Freaking. Men! 🎤

    • Carmen says:

      Yes he should be slurred for this and for every hateful thing he has said and done to women.

    • CourtneyB says:

      Look up his tweets with Jake shields about her sexuality. He DOES do this.

  54. EBS says:

    The good news is that the Romanian authorities (he lives in Romania) have been looking to investigate him for human trafficking, and apparently they were able to use that video to prove he is in Romania. Talk about karma.

  55. shanaynay says:

    WOW! She’s a amazing! Loved her tweet!!!!

  56. Ewissa says:

    The best thing tho not even after 24h since Greta’s tweet Tate was arrested.

  57. Mothra says:

    FATALITY! I just wish it had been done physically too.

  58. Emily_C says:

    I was thinking “gee I wish this were literally ‘destroyed’ and not just online.”

    AND THEN IT WAS. Because of his completely stupid frothing response to this, the Romanian cops, who had been looking for Tate, found him. He’s now sitting in a Romanian jail. Thank you for the Christmas present, Greta!

  59. Sass says:

    What’s hilarious about this is how she just used his own dogma against him.

    My favorite comment today was some incel twerp on IG stating her response was weak and immature. To which I replied “she was matching his energy then” 🤷‍♀️ These fools can dish it out but can’t take it.

  60. Ewissa says:

    He has been detained for 24 h ( that’s what reports say) for human trafficking.
    Of course he knew it going to happen soon as if you do shady things, you will have police looking into it.He run from UK to avoid charges to Romania.So now he spins it to his fans that Matrix is out to get him for speaking truth.According to him – 1st you will be cancelled ( when he was cancelled on social media for dangerous and hateful content) second apparently is wrongful imprisonment and 3rd strike death .Which brings dangerous possibilities that he would become some kind of martyr for those evil men that worship him.

  61. bisynaptic says:

    You should absolutely watch the video, because it got him arrested by the Romanian police, LOLs.

  62. TheVolvesSeidr says:

    This morning she tweeted “this is what happens when you don’t recycle your pizza boxes” BAHAHAHAAHAHA!! Greta is amazing.
